    Ohhhh….very cool!  I've got to try this!  It reminds me of gymnasts on the pommel horse. 🙂

     Beautiful!! Thank you for sharing this! I got a laugh out of the "I can do this … not even close" comment. Will be adding this move to my list of 'must learn'.

    Ooohh very cool. I do a similar one in this video that I call the scissor spin. 🙂 This is the only video I have of it. I often do one more twist instead of going into the ballerina.

    Thanks. 🙂 Do you  mean where I pull myself up before doing the scissir move? I don't have a name for it, i just call it a pull up spin 😛

    yes, that's the one. i'd never done that one before i got a spinny pole. i LOVE it, cool to see other transitions into other combos. 🙂

    Bump! are you sure this is possible? ha ha. 

    She's spinning to the right and kicking around to the left, right? I'm trying to understand the mechanics.

    Hahhaha reverse fan kick LOOKS easy but boy, it's much harder than it looks. Took me a couple tries to perfect it. One of the Crunch teachers taught us in early August and pretty much everyone, no matter how advanced, had trouble! I think it's using more core and opposite muscles from what we normally use.

    you also need strong arms if you want to repeat it a few times =)

     yeah–impressive!! I can do kicks from the floor but can't get my legs that high when I'm on the pole.

    Yes I do these perfectly! (but not at the moment being pregnant-don't do anything abdominal or too much core right now)

    It uses a ton of core work.You have to do them every week, just like your inverts, hand springs and caterpiller and shoulder mounts to keep up with the ab work.

    Keep working at it and you'll get it!
